Progress tones 6.6 6.6 Progress tones Introduction Progress tone is general name for all tones and announcements played within the PbX. After creating new database has PbX set of default progress tones. Amount of progress tones and language alternations depends on installed language packages. This basic set could be extended with own files, tones or by connecting of external audio inputs (e.g. mp3 player). Whole menu is logicaly divided into couple of tabs.
Progress tones 6.6 Play – It is used for playing selected progress. Progress configuration Action – In this column you can choose one of listed commands, which consequently defines meaning of that row. Repeat – It defines number of repeating. This command can be used only once within each progress and it means that all rows from the beginning to this row will be repeated. Number of repeating is set within the column Repeating.
Progress tones 6.6 Own files Own files This section shows all files uploaded by user to the PbX, which can be used as sources for progress. Context menu of this section has following functions: Add – Is used for adding record. This record is then used as source for progress. After creating it has no file. It has to be uploaded via section Own files source. Rename – With this function you can rename selected record. Delete – With this function you can delete selected record.
Progress tones 6.6 some of them were deleted. Made changes of other tones are preserved. Restore default tones – With this option you are able to complete list of default tones. All changes made within default tones are lost. Tone configuration In this section you can configure selected tone via table with three columns with following meaning. Language – This column defines language for each row. You are able to create different forms of tone for different languages.
Ring tones 6.7 Other sections Sections Information about progress and Progress configuration are common for all tabs and meaning of theirs parameters is described in part Progress list. 6.7 Ring tones Ring tones you can set up in the menu Tones & Rings - Ring patterns. Each ring tone consists of ring pattern and cornet melody. Some terminals aren't able to change ring melody and use only ring pattern. On the left side of the menu is displayed list of the created ring patterns.
Time parameters 6.8 ring pattern is then used with selected melody. Signal BRI – This parameter sets ring tone signaling for the ISDN terminals. This function has to be supported by used ISDN terminal or it will be ignored . Durations – Here you can set ring pattern via two columns and four rows. For each row which you want to use, you have to set column ON and column OFF. First one represents time of the ring current and second one represents timeout before resuming on the other row.
Time parameters 6.8 Figure 2 View of the dialogue box for setting date and time of the PbX. 6.8.2 Time conditions Time conditions you can set in the menu Global data – Time parameters – Time conditions. This menu is divided into two parts. On the left side is displayed list of defined time conditions, which you can create, remove or rename via context menu. On the right side you are able to set up selected time conditions. One time condition could consists of several simple rules, which are summed.
Time parameters 6.8 Figure 2 Part of the menu for time conditions editing. Regarding to complexity of the time conditions are defined exact rules: 1) There are defined parameters which optionally defines absolute limits of time interval validity (it means beginning and ending). If these limits are defined, time condition can be valid only within this limits, regardless further settings (including Interval negation). On the top of dialogue box for time interval setting are checkboxes From and To.
Autoclip parameters 6.
Assistant 6.10 Autoclip parameters Into the autoclip table you can save outgoing calls (outgoing messages) records with parameters dependent on the calling (sending) user. To this purpose serve just autoclip parameters. You can define it in the menu Global data – Autoclip parameters. This menu is divided into two parts. On the left side is displayed list of created sets of autoclip parameters. There you can add, remove or rename sets of autoclip parameters via context menu.

At this time you can choose between three languages – Czech, English and Finnish. Image directory – With this option you can set up using of one of predefined image sets. CSS style file name – With this option you can set up CSS style, which will be used within the application. Max.
Routers 7.1 7 Routing 7.1 Routers Router Router is the set of rules, which are used for incoming call routing through the PbX. Routers are defined in the menu Routing – Routers which consists of two windows. In the window on the left side is displayed list of created routers. On the right side you can set up selected router. On the left side of the menu you can use context menu with following options: Add – With this option you can initiate dialog box for adding routers.
Routers 7.1 format. Show objects routing into the router – With this option you can open side window where you can see list of all objects which are routed into selected router. Call routing Call routing is executed similarly within all router types. At first is found row according to incoming informations (called or calling number, called or calling number subtype, call type, incoming carrier or text of incoming SMS message) and then is used rule from that row.
Routers 7.1 Number – It means digits, letters A, B, C, D and characters *, #, +. , – Comma means waiting for one second. p(X) – Symbol X you have to replace by number of seconds you want to wait. This instruction corresponds to "X" commas. t – Parameter "t" sets if preset number is dialled after connect to the voice channel (parameter "t" is used) or if it is only dialled with delay before connect (parameter "t" isn't used). Scheme – In this column you can change called number scheme to number or URI.
Routers 7.1 columns with the same meaning as in the case of router by called number. Difference is only that in this case presents prefix calling party number and you can't use instructions for delayed dialling. Calling party number changes made within this router are used only for routing and not for call identification. c) By called number subtype This router is based on routing according to the called number subtype (CDN subtype).
Routers 7.1 and you can't change it. Calling party number subtype changes made within this router are used only for routing and not for call identification. e) By call type This router is based on routing according to the call type (voice, data, video, ...). All columns have the same meaning as in the case of router by called number subtype except first one. First column sets up call type. When is preset call type recognized, call is routed to the preset destination.
Routing objects 7.2 rule within row with time condition is valid only in the time when is valid preset time condition. Thanks time conditions you are able to create sophisticated routing according to the time. For the same incoming conditions (except time) you can route the call to different destinations.
Routing objects 7.2 Figure 1 View of configuration menu of routing object Bundle – tab Basic. This menu consists of many parameters with following meaning: Allocate strategy – This parameter sets way of object choosing within the selected bundle. You can choose between strategy Linear or Cyclic. Linear strategy – Incoming call is always routed to the first row of the bundle. If this object is busy or unavailable, call is routed to the next row or terminated (according to another setting).
Routing objects 7.2 incoming call isn't terminated after routing to the last unused object, but it rings to the last destination. Last unused object needn't to be the object from the last row of the bundle. Default alert tones – Within this section you can set up different alert tones for specific situations. Normal – It sets alert tone which is used at all cases except following two. Queued – It sets alert tone, which is used by routing to the station with active queue.
Routing objects 7.2 Figure 2 View of configuration menu of routing object Bundle – tab Advance. 7.2.2 DISA DISA The routing object DISA (Direct Inward System Access) is used for automatic call acceptance. Subsequent you can dial another digits via DTMF and route call through the PbX to the requested destination. In conjunction with suitable routers, you can create complex IVR structure.
Routing objects 7.2 Figure 1 View of the possible configuration of the DISA routing object. This menu consists of many parameters with following meaning: Tone – With this option you can choose suitable progress tone from the list. Your own progress tones and messages you can add in the menu 6.6 Progress tones. Strategy – This option sets way of using of the whole routing object DISA. You can choose between two strategies: Immediate – This strategy represents common concept of the DISA.
Routing objects 7.2 7.2.3 Ring groups Ring group The ring group is a routing object which is used in the cases when you want to route incoming call to more destinations at the same time. The ring groups are also used as user groups within which users can take over their calls. It is useful for situations when one of the users isn't present and his (or hers) phone is ringing. For this purpose are intended services Take over from group and Take over from my group.
Routing objects 7.2 Figure 1 View of configuration menu of routing object Ring group – tab Basic. Advanced settings Force CLIP – It is used as quick identification tab for incoming way differentiation. Calling party identification is changed after passing this object. You have to set up Scheme (Number or URI), Subtype (Unknown, Internal, Local, National, International) and Number/URI (specific number or address). In call history at the called user is presented original identification of the calling user.
Routing objects 7.2 Figure 2 View of configuration menu of routing object Bundle – tab Advanced. 7.2.4 Ring tabs Ring tab The ring tab in a routing object, which is used in the cases when you want to route incoming call subsequently to more destinations. It combines advantages of bundle and ring group. Routing of the incoming call is handled according to the preset rules, which are always executed from the beginning.
Routing objects 7.2 of the parameter Queue at the final destination. Route – Selected alert tone is used only in the case that on the final destination is enabled parameter Queue. No port station – It sets alert tone, which is used by routing to the user with station without carrier (external station). That user have to have assigned external station and at least one other internal station (which is active). Otherwise you will hear another alert tone.
Routing objects 7.2 End of routing With these commands you can terminate routing to that objects, which you have started to alert within this ring tab via commands Route or Route with queue. Don't route – With this command you can terminate routing to the specific object. You can terminate only routing to the objects, which you started to alert within this ring tab. For example you aren't able to terminate routing to the specific station of the user if you have started to route the call to the user.
Routing objects 7.2 Figure 2 View of configuration menu of routing object Ring tabs – tab Advanced. 7.2.5 Modems Modem connection Connection to the PbX via modem is used for remote access in the cases when you can't use TCP/IP connection. Modem you can also use for remote access to the database and for receiving actual system traces via application TraceView. This type of access is limited by its data rate and it isn't recommended in locations, where you can use TCP/IP access.
Routing objects 7.2 Modem setting Trace send enabled – With this option you can enable trace sending for application TraceView via modem. If this option isn't checked, application is connected, but no information is send to the remote user. In this mode you can view only database. Peer authorize required – With this option you can enable demand for connection dialogue box for access via modem. If this option isn't checked, is connection established without requirement of login and password.
Routing objects 7.2 stations, users, carriers, modems, DISAs and services. You have to think of the fact, that chaining will be probably finished if you use some object, which has no opportunity to the return to the set. It is recommended to add these objects to the end of the structure. The option Default is used in this column for return to the foregoing set (if you use set within the set). Id – With this column you can set specific object of the selected type.
Routing objects 7.2 Figure 1 View of configuration menu of routing object Audio I/O. Example 1 – Broadcast If you want to use audio port as source for your broadcast, you have to set selected port in menu Boards as Output and then assign it to the selected routing object Audio I/O. Using of broadcast is activated by incoming call to this routing object. If we want to play some announcement (e.g. We are beginning... 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, on air...), we can choose it within parameter Tone.
Routing objects 7.2 Binary ports Audio/IO/Relay board can have four or eight binary ports. Each port can be used in mode Output (switch), Input (detector) or in bidirectional mode (switch and detector). Function of each port depends also on hardware setting of jumpers. Individual useable modes are described in hardware manual in the chapter 2.14 Audio/IO/Relay board. Binary ports can't be used as other virtual ports of the PbX. You have to assign them to concrete routing object Binary I/O.
Routing objects 7.2 None – Routing object doesn't react to timeout expiration or end of the played tone. Hang up – After timeout expiration or playing whole tone is call hung up in routing object with cause no. 16 – normal call clearing. Call destination – After timeout expiration or playing whole tone is call routed according to configuration of section Destination. Play whole tone – With this option you can enable playing whole tone independently of preset timeout.
Routing objects 7.2 you see here Unknown, then is assigned binary port probably configured as Output or is this port or whole board out of order. Tone connected – It sets announcement played to the calling user when detector is in state active. Tone disconnected – It sets announcement played to the calling user when detector is in state deactive. Tone events enabled – It sets announcement played to the calling user in the case of checked option Send events.
Routing objects 7.2 sent and button Enable isn't activ. If sending is stopped, messages aren't sent and button Enable is ready for use. State detector – active – With this option you can enable message about active state of detector. Within this section you can define text of sent message. Optionally you can also stop another sending after this message via checkbox Stop sending when message was sent. State detector – inactive – With this option you can enable message about deactive state of detector.
Routing objects 7.2 Destination after timeout – This destination is used in the case of expiration of Ring detection timeout for another call routing. In the case of SMS Callback this destination isn't used. SMS form Incoming SMS for Callback has to be routed into text router where it can be routed to the selected object Callback. Used SMS has to be in following form: Called number,Delay,Calling number Called number – This parameter is mandatory.
Identification tab 7.3 7.3 Identification tab What is it Identification tab? The identification tabs are used for changing calling party number of the stations. You can create and modify them in the menu Routing – Identification tabs. If you want to use specific identification tab you have to assign it to the virtual port or virtual port type. Menu for set up consists of two windows. On the left side of the menu is displayed list of the created identification tabs.
Identification tab 7.3 Configuration of Identification tab If you select some identification tab on the left side of the menu, you can setup it on the right side. Window for configuration can be logically divided into four parts – Calling party determination, New identification determination, Advanced settings and Default destination. Calling party determination Calling party determination is performed at the beginning of each identification table row.
Autoclip routers 7.4 Default identification The last field is on the bottom of the menu and it is used for identification setting of all calling parties, which weren't found within the tab. Function of parameters within this part is same as by parameters from yellow highlighted part, which were described before. 7.
Autoclip routers 7.4 to the same number. This strategy refers to records storing and also to using of them. You can choose between three strategies: All – All records are saved to the database. If incoming call corresponds to more autoclip router records, all matching users are alerted at the same time. In sequence – If incoming call corresponds to more autoclip router records, all matching users are alerted subsequently one by one (from the newest record).
Autoclip routers 7.4 Port – This column shows port, which was used for routing of the outgoing call, which created this autoclip router record. It is used in the case of checked option Check port. Final destination – This column shows calling party, which created this autoclip router record. In the case of PbX user is here displayed his name and in the case of external user is here only his identification (CLI). To these destinations is also routed incoming call or SMS message.
Users and Groups 8.1 8 Users 8.1 Users and Groups Users creation Settings for users you can find in the menu Routing – Users and Groups. in this menu you can manage also groups and stations. On the left side of this menu is displayed list of created groups, subgroups, users and stations. Figure 1 Structure of PbX users from groups to the stations. Within context you can find following options: Add group – This option is used for basic groups adding.
Users and Groups 8.1 you will see dialog box from figure 2. Via this dialog box you can set another parameters and even create some stations which will be assigned to the new created user. Figure 2 View of the dialog box for creation of new user. In following part of this chapter are described individual tabs of the menu Users and Groups: Basic On the right side of this tab is displayed only name of selected group or subgroup.
Users and Groups 8.1 Properties The tab Properties consists of many tabs, which are described in the separate chapter. This tab is exceptional, because almost for all its parameters you can use hierarchical structure. This structure and description of all parameters is situated in the chapter 9.1 Setting up the properties tab. Profiles For easier handling with user settings were created user profiles, which provide easy changes of a large number of parameters in one step.
Users and Groups 8.1 c) Properties The tab Properties consists of many tabs, which are described in the separate chapter. This tab is exceptional, because almost for all its parameters you can use hierarchical structure. This structure and description of all parameters is situated in the chapter 9.1 Setting up the properties tab.
Users and Groups 8.1 Scheme – This column sets scheme of the user identification. You can choose between "Number" and "URI". Subtype – This column sets subtype of the user identification. You can choose between Unknown, Internal, Local, National and International. Number – Into this column you have to fill in user Number or URI according to column Scheme. Ring pattern – For each record of user phone book you can choose different ring tone.
Users and Groups 8.1 CFU – Call Forwarding Unconditional – This parameter sets unconditional forwarding to the voicemail. It means that all incoming calls will be forwarded directly to the voicemail if no profile is active (and no exceptions are set). CFEC – Call Forwarding on Error Cause – This parameter sets forwarding to the voicemail in the case of busy user or in the case of other error cause detection (e.g. call rejection).
User rights 8.2 Repeat try count – This parameter sets maximum count of sending attempts at fail for outgoing SMS messages. Preset value is 4000. Autoclip parameters for messages – With this parameter you can assign set of AutoClip parameters. Into the AutoClip router are then all records about outgoing SMS messages for this user stored with these parameters. Assistant This tab can be used only on user level.
User rights 8.2 Figure 1 View of logins divided according to the groups. Basic After selecting concrete user is on the right side of tab Basic displayed list of users who belong to the same group as selected user. For these users you can see its login types and there are also displayed all set rights. This view is useful when you need to set similar rights within group of users. Table of rights is divided into sections with following meaning.
Station types 8.3 NsAdmin This section isn't implemented yet. Assistant After selecting concrete user is on the right side of tab Assistant displayed list of users who belong to the same group as selected user. For these users you can see its login types and there are also displayed all set rights for application Assistant. This view is useful when you need to set similar rights within group of users. Table of rights is divided into sections with following meaning.
Stations 8.4 this station can't be created and you will be warn. Each station has to be assigned to specific user. This step is also done within this dialogue box. Futhermore you have to fill in the station number and if you are creating external station, you have to fill in the routing number too (number for call routing within other networks). In the case of external station you can also check the option Resend SMS, which enables to resend all incoming SMS messages to the external station.
Stations 8.4 Active – With this option you can activate or deactivate selected station. Deactivated station is unreachable for other stations (incoming call to this station is rejected), but station itself is able to establish outgoing calls. SIP – With this option you can mark SIP station among another stations. SIP station is then highlighted by green colour. Stations which are SIP and external together are red highlighted.
Phone books 8.5 assign selected station to one of the created terminals. c) SIP terminals are identified by their SIP URI. Terminals you can create at the SIP proxy carriers. With option Terminal you can easily assign selected station to one of the created terminals. Properties The tab Properties consists of many tabs, which are described in the separate chapter. This tab is exceptional, because almost for all its parameters you can use hierarchical structure.
Phone books 8.5 The phone book tab in this menu consists of individual records, which are devided into six columns with following meaning: Nickname – In this column you can set name which will be used for easier searching within the phone book. Name – It shows name of the station for which was this record created. This name will be displayed on your phone. Scheme – In this column you can set if entered string have to represent number or URI. Subtype – In this column you can set subtype of entered number.

You can choose between subtypes Unknown, Internal, Local, National and International. It is active only if you use for this record scheme number. Number/URI – This column represents phone numbers (event.
Phone books 8.5 8.5.4 Common phone books Common phone books you can create in the menu Phone books – Common. There you can create "unlimited" number of phone books, which are then assigned to the selected groups of users. The context menu invoked on the right side of this menu offers following options: Within context menu on the right side of the menu you can use following optionst: Add – It is used for adding of another row of the selected phone book.
Setting the properties tab 9.1 9 Setting up the Properties Tab 9.1 Setting the properties tab Fall-down hierarchy All parameters on the tab Properties are used according to the fall-down hierarchy of the PbX. It means, that if you set some parameter on one specific level it isn't certain that it will be used. Each level of this fall-down hierarchy has preset priority. Following figure defines all levels of used falldown hierarchy. Higher situated levels have also higher priority.
Setting the properties tab 9.1 can find on all levels. a) Basic Parameters of this tab are mostly divided into sections according to their function: No answer timeout [ms] – This parameter sets maximum time of alerting of the called phone. After expiration of this timeout is call establishment terminated with cause "user not responding" and calling user hears congestion tone. Default value of this parameter is 180s. Next call – With this parameter you can set up caution about incoming queued call.
Setting the properties tab 9.1 delay). Identification parameters Incoming hold CLIP – This parameter is used for called party number forwarding to the called user in the case of call transfer made by station where is this parameter enabled. It means, that if it is set to "YES", transferred call will be identified by the calling number of transferred user (A) and not with the called party number of the user who transferred (B). Default value of this parameter is "NO".
Setting the properties tab 9.1 is used for call holding. If you use this pattern when the call is in hold, you can reconnect that call. If one call is active and second in hold, you can switch between calls using this pattern. DISCONNECT pattern – With this parameter you can set up characters of the DISCONNECT pattern. This pattern you can use when you have one call active and one in hold. Using this pattern you will terminate active call and call in hold will be reconnected.
Setting the properties tab 9.1 column Tone you can select required progress tone from another diaplayed list. In the case of dial tones is possible that for incoming call are satisfied more rules. Then is always used that rule, which is higher in configuration. On the right side are two buttons (arrows) which can be used for changing priority of already created rows. g) Ring patterns On this tab you can assign ring tones according to the calling party.
Setting the properties tab 9.1 extenders with ninety keys. In the case of terminals Entry, Economy, Basic, Standard and Advanced you can set up following parameters: 1) Keypad setting Keys are programmed via dialog box which you can invoke by clicking on the selected key. Within the dialog box you have to select function and legend of the key. You can choose between following functions: NONE – With this function you can clear function of selected key on the specific level of fall-down hierarchy.
Setting the properties tab 9.1 Keys volume – With this parameter you can set up loudness of the key hit in the handset or handsfree. Parameter can be set within the range of 0 to 15. Ring volume – With this parameter you can set up loudness of the ring tone. Parameter can be set within the range of 0 to 8. Handsfree volume – With this parameter you can set up loudness of the handsfree. Parameter can be set within the range of 0 to 15.
Setting the properties tab 9.1 seven levels from "extremely fast" to "extremely slow". i) AoC On the tab AoC you can set up warranted count of displayed call records on the system phone. You can set up independently count of records for Missed, Received and Dialed calls. Default count of records is set to twenty. This limitation you can notice only in the PbX with great number of users (carried calls). If the PbX has capacity to keep in store more records, all are displayed at any time.
Setting the properties tab 9.1 l) Customer On the tab Customer you can find parameters for functions which are implemented for specific customers and its meaning will be introduced only marginally. This tab is divided into the three sections. Within the first one you can define supported method of called party number sending. This number is used for billing. Within other sections you have to set up specific called party identification, which will be transmitted via DSS1 message.
